Workers' Compensation

Texas Workers' Comp Attorney

The state of Texas is unique because it does not require employers to carry workers' compensation insurance. This makes collecting benefits for on the job injuries much more complicated than in other states.

If you or a loved one has been injured on the job, you should contact an experienced Texas workers' comp attorney immediately - even if you think everything will be okay and your employer said that they will take care of you.

Experienced, Dedicated San Antonio Lawyer

Our attorney, Kelly A. Matthews, is dedicated to fighting for her clients and has the experience it takes to succeed. She is only one of a few lawyers in the San Antonio region who is board certified in Workers' Compensation Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization. Before starting her law practice, she worked for two insurance defense firms. This means she understands how the courts work and how insurance companies think.

Here are some of the things our experienced workers' comp attorney can do for you:

  • Help you find a suitable, employer-approved doctor if you are in a network
  • Make sure you get all the medical attention and medications you need
  • File insurance claims
  • File suit against employers for negligence or misconduct
  • Negotiate with insurance companies
  • Resolve disputes over injured body parts
  • Attend administrative hearings including benefit review conferences and contested case hearings
  • File appeals of impairment ratings
  • Help you recover lost wages
  • Appeal decisions over return to work
  • Help you obtain maximum compensation for your claim while it is still viable
  • Help you find a caring,dedicated treating doctor

Impairment Ratings and Workers' Compensation Benefits

In Texas, workers' comp benefits include temporary income benefits (TIBs), impairment income benefits (IIBs), supplemental income benefits (SIBs), death benefits (DIBs), and lifetime income benefits (LIBs).
